More about Northampton County

The county government's mission centers on protecting the health, safety, welfare, and quality of life of its citizens, with the nursing home serving as a key public health service. Nursing positions involve lead professional work overseeing all patient care activities on assigned shifts, ensuring patient care coverage, provision of ancillary services, and coordination of medical and nursing care. The employer offers multiple scheduling options including full-time, part-time, and per diem positions with 8-hour shifts and every-other-weekend rotation requirements. Northampton County describes its workplace as providing meaningful work in a supportive, team-oriented environment with a culture of growth and development. The county emphasizes making a positive community impact and offers competitive salaries alongside a comprehensive benefits package that includes a traditional pension plan. As a public sector employer, nursing staff are county government employees, which provides certain civil service protections and benefits but may also involve governmental administrative processes.

The mission of Northampton County Local Government is to provide necessary services to protect the health, safety, welfare, environment, and quality of life of its citizens consistent with the communities' values and priorities. This mission is accomplished by encouraging citizen involvement, preserving the County's fiscal stability, traditional values, and unity of its people through effective governance.
